This may come as a surprise, but the Internet isn't just a source of porn. It can be an invaluable resource for research and study, and for forming friendships that do not know geographical boundaries.
Admittedly, I can't stand chatting with teenagers, in most cases. Some of them are quite bright, and I make no judgment on them based on their age. It's just that "asl" bullshit that I really detest. And the 1337 talk, of course...

The internet itself was begun as a source of information for our mailitary, then maturing slowly it became a place of nothing but text information for research. As it grew it became more diverse and as with everything else in this world it was tainted with sex, hence: porn. The ASL and 1337(whatever that means) is quite anoying.
And as a 19-year-old I reserve my right in defending my maturity level, intellegence, and integrety. I find that most people between the ages of 13 and 15 are looking for stuff they shouldn't be, people between the ages of 16 and 25 tend to look for your availibility to meet them and screw them in the near future. As for the rest, they tend to make great conversationalist. Although this tends to be the trend it's not allways so. In fact my buddy list is quite filled with mature people who understand from the get-go that I'm not a moralless teen-aged girl. Their ages range from 15 to 46 and although it does take time to find other people out there in chat rooms, it's not impossible, trust me.
If the bother you so much, ignore them or block them...
